Shirt

When he knew all cameras and lights would be trained on him, Ray Lewis pulled his game jersey off Sunday to reveal a shirt with a single message: Psalms 91. So curious minds wanted to understand what point Lewis was trying to make as he took a victory lap around the stadium wearing this particular shirt. The psalm is known as the "psalm of protection. " It has a lot to do with vanquishing various enemies with faith and treading upon beasts under one's feet. Here's a key passage: Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare and from the deadly pestilence.

The Doberman sits on the edge of a bed, oblivious of the remarkable view from the floor-to-ceiling window. Modern high-rises peep out from a dense forest dotted with palm trees and shrouded in mist. Artist Jereme Scott says his painting was inspired by a 1957 photograph in National Geographic. At 66 inches by 50 inches, “The Watcher of Suite Singapore” is the largest item on display at his store, Cotton Duck Art & Apparel, in Historic Ellicott City. The shop, which opened in March, also sells T-shirts, hoodies and tank tops Scott designed, and jewelry made by designers from the Mid-Atlantic.

Darren O'Day is set apart from other relievers by his sidearm delivery, his own version of the “Ole” song, and his 0.92 ERA, among other things. And he can add another to the list. “I have a couple things going for me, and now I have a T-shirt,” O'Day said Wednesday, when the Orioles gave out orange T-shirts with his “O'Day” song and a silhouette logo of his sidearm delivery. “It's pretty exciting. I never expected a T-shirt.” O'Day pitched a scoreless ninth inning in the Orioles' 3-1 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays, his 10th scoreless outing in a row. He has allowed one run in 14 appearances since the All-Star break, and he has struck out more than one batter per inning this season.

Can someone loan Ken Ulman a shirt he can wear to pick up another county's garbage? Don't everyone line up at once. After his bet on Sunday's Ravens game went sour, the Howard County executive has to make good on what he promised Prince George's County Executive Rushern Baker. Sometime this week Ulman must put on a Robert Lee Griffin III jersey and wear it to pick up roadside trash in Redskins terriotory while singing the team song.

He was told he had to remove the shirt or turn it inside out. "I thought, 'Do you see the purple football?

James Francis "Shirt-sleeves" O'Neill, a retired lawyer who had served as mayor of Bel Air in the early 1970s, died of cancer Monday at Stella Maris Hospice in Timonium. He was 86. "Jim was a character, spontaneous, funny and off the wall sometimes but not all the time," said Todd Holden, a former Aegis reporter and photographer who was a longtime friend. "He used to ride a minibike when gas went through the roof, and always had a Red Baron white scarf around his neck as he made his way around town," said Mr. Holden.

Washington.--Not long ago at a certain barbecue restaurant in southside Virginia, where most of the customers are church-going senior citizens, a young man and his female friend entered wearing T-shirts.The message on his shirt was in four big red letters, plus an exclamation point. To most religious old folks, and especially to those already eating, it was not an appetizing word. To say it or flaunt it in public is bad manners among the dwindling band of citizens who still have manners.I said to my fellow witness, an octogenarian, that if I were themanager, I would have told the T-shirt wearer to take his business elsewhere.

Ouch! Darn it! Missed one!One of life's verities is that whenever a man opens a new shirt, he finds a thousand straight pins -- or at least eight or 10.They are simply a fact of sartorial life, taken for granted except when a forgotten pin delivers a pointed reminder of its presence.Then it's "Why are all those*! pins in new shirts and how do they get there?"The pins are there because, industry sources say, no better way has been found to keep new shirts folded crisply and neatly, and they get there by the grace of people like Michelle Anderson, Agnes Green and Tina Bhatt, who emplace them -- by hand -- eight to 10 per shirt, depending on fabric and style.

He's getting pitches to hit and making opposing pitchers pay. The Cruz T-shirt features 26 'U's on the front.
